remember the caveat he can choose if its a lie or the truth

And who says America like Nick? Everyone i talked to hated Nick for trying to steal Dani from her BF.

<100>

Lets all keep working together <100>

And the producers told him all he had to do was vote for that person and he did that. He didnt have to campaign for him and thats straight from emails to BB production.

What kind of lame azz thing is this, we get to tell him what we want him to do, yet he can choose whether he wants to honor it or not? How is that doing America wants him to do? Thats not doing what we want, wth? This is way silly now, America's Player? Not anymore, anyway, I voted for Daniele.

The question is:

"America's Player needs a partner. This week, Eric is going to promise a HouseGuest that he will go to the Final 2 with them. It's up to Eric, though, whether this promise is the truth or a lie. To whom do you want Eric to make this promise? It's your choice America."

Looks to me like if America votes for him to choose Dick, Eric can make a deal with Dick but he can still target Dick for eviction any time he chooses without going against America's vote.

Eric does not have to honor the choice America tells him to make!

This is a great question! The way it's worded, it doesn't "lock" Eric into anything that would make him vote a certain way or back someone he doesn't want to back.

It also doesn't say that Eric can't tell someone else who he promised what....or whether it's an honest promise or not! He could make that deal with Dick and let Jessica (and/or the entire alliance of 5) in on it and they could use it to target Dick.



edited to add - And I think Eric is smart enough to understand that!

guys, guys, Eric already knows it's Jessica, beats me how if the voting only starts tonight, but he already made the promise to Jessica...

Go to the Live Feeds or I don't remember where the heck I read it or heard it... but he DID already.

Spunky, I think he made that promise on his own. It wasn't part of AP. It just so happens that was this week's question.

The trouble with the question that I see is if the audience chooses someone he is not aligned with in any way, then he can't approach them without endangering himself. E.g. we vote for Dick - Eric tells Dick he's willing to make a final 2 promise with him - Dick laughs in his face and tells everyone else what Eric did - Jessica never trusts him again. Unless we choose someone who's already close with Eric it's just going to get back to Jessica and his close allies and they won't trust him again. And if he has to do this before the veto ceremony or the eviction he's done for.

He made the promise to Jessica when trying to explain to her his innocence in the mystery vote...

It doesn't matter who America votes for. Eric can promise to take Jessica to the final 2 AND tell her that he is going to promise <insert America's choice here> the same thing but not mean it. Nowhere did it say he can't do that.

Kitt, Eric could tell his alliance what he's going to do ahead of time and then they can't accuse him of lying.

Ah yes! Good thinking, I like it. He'd have to do that if told to promise to an "enemy".

Spunky I don't think the promise to Jessica had anything to do with tonight's vote. That is something Eric did on his own without nothing what tonight's task would be. That I think he was being honest about. This is a different task he didn't know was coming.

Eric isn't a perfect player (who of them is) but I'd like to see him get farther in the game. So I'd like to see it be Jessica. That is the one that makes the most sense for him.

Don't want to burst anyone's bubble, but, the survey over at www.bb8talk.blogspot.com it shows that Dick is in the lead for whom Eric should promise final 2 and that it is Eric who is in the lead by a landslide for who will Danielle nominate after Jen uses the veto.

That bb8talk survey is just a survey of their own visitors, not a valid cross section of all BB viewers.

Eric will not bite on this task. What we really need is to figure out a way to get Dustin up and make Eric vote him out
